Python
DAY 1 PYTHON PROGRAMMING ESSENTIALS 2

Python is a high-level, general-purpose and a very

 popular programming language.
Python programming language (latest Python 3) is being used
in webdevelopment, Machine Learning applications, along with
all cutting edge technology in Software Industry.
Python Programming Language is very well suited for Beginners,

also C++ and Java.

Python
DAY 1 PYTHON PROGRAMMING ESSENTIALS 3

Python allows programming in Object-Oriented and

Procedural paradigms.
Python programs generally are smaller than other programming
 languages like Java. Programmers have to type relatively less and
indentation requirement of the language, makes them readable all
the time.
Python language is being used by almost all tech-giant
companieslike –Google, Amazon, Facebook, Instagram,
Dropbox, Uber… etc.
 GUI Applications (like Kivy, Tkinter, PyQt etc. )

Python Libraries
DAY 1 PYTHON PROGRAMMING ESSENTIALS 4

The biggest strength of Python is huge collection of standard

library which can be used for the following:
 Machine Learning

 Web frameworks like Django (used by YouTube, Instagram, Dropbox)

 Image processing (like OpenCV, Pillow)
 Web scraping (like Scrapy, BeautifulSoup, Selenium)
 Test frameworks
 Multimedia
 Scientific computing
 Text processing and many more..

Python History
DAY 1 PYTHON PROGRAMMING ESSENTIALS 5

It was created by Guido

van Rossum in 1991
Further developed by the Python
Software Foundation
Python 2.0 released in 2000
Python 3.0 released in 2008
Python 2.0 discontinued 2020
Python 3.8.5 (Sept. 2020)

Python Identifiers
DAY 1 PYTHON PROGRAMMING ESSENTIALS 17

Identifiers are used to identify variable, function, class module or

other object.
It should start with A to Z or a to z or an underscore (_)
followed by zero or more letters, underscore and digits (0 to
9)
Case sensitive

Keywords
DAY 1 PYTHON PROGRAMMING ESSENTIALS True

break else and elif

False
continue del

None
class
and or def

not If

assert else elif

Indentation
DAY 1 PYTHON PROGRAMMING ESSENTIALS 19

Python uses indentation to indicate code block

if age>18:
print(“Legal Age”)
else:
print(“Underage”)
Comment
DAY 1 PYTHON PROGRAMMING ESSENTIALS Single line comment (#)
20

#this is a comment
print(“hello world”)

Multi-line comment (”””)

”””
This is comment line 1
This is another comment line 2
This is another comment line 3
”””
print(“hello world”)

Quotations
DAY 1 PYTHON PROGRAMMING ESSENTIALS 21
It accepts single (‘), double (“) and triple (‘’’ or ”””)for text or
string
